I'm new on the list. I'm gathering all information about the family Oldenkamp sometimes Oldencamp too. Around 1880 some Oldenkamps emigrated to Hospers, Iowa as far as I know. In 1991 I published the Oldenkamp-book. Among them emigrated. Jans Oldenkamp, born Smilde, The Netherlands 1853, grainfarmer, died Cherokee about 1919. Married Hospers, Iowa 27 Aug 1889, divorced possible Conrad, Montana after 1909, Ada Wierda, born Wymbritseradeel, The Netherlands 1865, died Medford, Oregon 1936. They had as far as I know 7 children. 1. Fijkje, born Orange City 17 Apr 1890. 2. Dirkje, born Orange City 26 Dec 1896. 3. Dirk, born Iowa about 1899. 4. Boukje/Bertha, born 1 Sept 1899. 5. Richard, born 1899. 6. Jans, born 20 Dec 1904, died Hospers? 21 Jan 1905. 7. Jennie, born 1909, died/buried Montana 21 Sept 1909. Who knows more information about this family? More Oldenkamps were born, married, died in Iowa. In this area and other states are living a lot of Oldenkamps nowadays. Who can help me with information, addresses/e-mailaddresses. With kind regards. Henk van Zaanen The Netherlands h.v.zaanen@hccnet.nl
